I remain disappointed that the concepts of Minneapolis, and MPLS, have not been extended to calling them 'mipples.'

Are we going to Mipples? again?
Is our network infrastructure mipples-enabled?
Should we implement a bogop mipples vippen?

sometimes a metaphor is just a metaphor.

Yes.

And I think we have several conceptual Minneapolises :-) some of which
we are returning to.

Our main criteria is 1-1-1*, and I agree that we can get some further
efficiencies by focusing more on repeat locations with good experience.
But we will still need to meet in different parts of the world. Granted,
two out of the last 15 meetings were in touristy locations - that’s still
probably less than, say corresponding fraction in some other
organisations such as the IEEE.  In any case, for me the main
criteria is ease of travel (flights), availability of a range of hotels
(and the hotel block in main ones), and ability to put the IETF
network in and other practical issues.
